There's always an excuse. There's always a justification to keep men blameless. Can't have birth control, women wont be responsible and will go out and have all the sex. Men can't help themselves, they're sowing their wild oats and heaven forbid we ask them to wrap it up. What if she's raped? Probably did something to deserve it. He didn't know any better. There's always a fucking excuse. I'm sorry you have family that believes that too.

But that's it. That's the mindset. I'm supposed to get mine and then some and all those "others" who don't look or think like me are supposed to lose stuff. That's the thinking.

The leopards are hard at work.

Category fraud is nothing new unfortunately. It seems to be strategic especially with Zoe and Kieran. best actor is already stacked so they figured they have better shots at supporting

Don't forget *points to random immigrant standing behind child*: That immigrant took your donut!

Agreed Kieran Culkin has as much screentime as Jesse Eisenberg but Best Actor is already stacked. Seems like I've heard nothing but bad press about Emilia Perez so we'll see how that one fares.

Even when the leopards are eating their faces they'll be all "why didn't the Democrats control this out of control leopard population?"

Costco has two dozen for 5.99. they've been my go-to in the great egg-flation.

I was single digit ages in the era of Dan Quayle and even I knew through my parents comments that he was a joke. We didn't think it would go any lower after George W Bush but we should never assume that this country has hit bottom yet.

I definitely laughed a little. It's all I've got. Probably the most entertained I've been by one of Jon Stewart's takes in a while. Josh Johnson at end was all too real. I'm glad TDS was the only footage I watched of the inauguration.

Let's face it, January 6th worked. It was not a failure. They did their job, they'll never face consequences again. Can't wait to see the pundits jumps through fire hoops to justify pardoning the rioters after attacking Joe Biden for pardoning Hunter.

Star Wars reference that's all too relevant today.

I just keep quoting Padme Amidala in my head, you know the one. The first thing off the top of my head is V-E/V-J day. Technically the end of countless deaths and multiple tragedies but it's all I've got without breaking the rules. In my time of living Obama's inauguration is probably the closest we've got but there were plenty of detractors and pissed off racists ready to stir shit. I knew and was friends with plenty of McCain supporters in my circle but the vibe was different. We all got along and many were excited to see what Obama could do, while we weren't 100% united it was much more civil than today.

I do agree with this. I have gotten so frustrated with far left overly PC crowds who jump on every word you say but I would still choose to hang out with them over a crowd of anti-woke MAGAs. My main concern with the far left PC crowds is that a large group of them are the ones who stayed home or voted third party because Gaza took precedent in their list of issues over domestic ones which are more likely to affect them. And while we can't ignore either issue, choosing a foreign crisis over a domestic war on half of our country's population reeks of cart before the horse While we can talk about why certain micro aggressions exist and why they should be addressed they should not eclipse the main issues. I don't believe old texts should be rewritten to contain more modern, progressive language. Those texts are a reminder of how people thought back then. Unfortunately that gives the far right fodder to attack us with. That's why they throw out all these Boogeymen stories like trans operations in schools because it distracts everyone from the real threats. I just wish the left could mobilize better and not fall victim to so much infighting.

I just looked it up too and the long and short of it is that picnics were events back in the day in which African Americans being lynched were the main event. Oof.
